Hi

I'm considering to play Look Inside in todays League Game because I have a very good PF and a C who isn't that bad(at least in IS, ID and Rebounding :)

But I have a problem choosing the best PG for this tactics.
I have a #1 PG with respactable outside defende, passing and handling but with only mediocre driving and inept JS, IS, and JR.

Is he the #1 pick for Look inside oder should I choose one of those guys?
(The second one has strong driving which is important for LI, isnt it? :))

Height: 6'1" / 185 cm
Game Shape: proficient
Jump Shot: mediocre Jump Range: mediocre
Outside Def.: average Handling: pitiful
Driving: average Passing: respectable
Inside Shot: atrocious Inside Def.: mediocre
Rebounding: average Shot Blocking: inept
Stamina: mediocre Free Throw: mediocre

or
Jump Shot: average Jump Range: inept
Outside Def.: atrocious Handling: mediocre
Driving: strong Passing: average
Inside Shot: respectable Inside Def.: atrocious
Rebounding: mediocre Shot Blocking: awful
Stamina: inept Free Throw: respectable


Can someone share his xp about this tactic?
If there's a thread about it pls post the # and accept my appologies :-S

thx in advance

The second one. Your guards are going to get into the lane quite frequently (from my experience) and his decent driving and inside shooting make up for his deficiencies in ball handling. He's going to shoot poorly from outside the arc and defend his man badly, but if you are more concerned about the inside scoring side of things, he's obviously the better of the two.

I would prefer the first one


Sure Driving and IS are more important than JR and OS playing look Inside. However I believe creating a good Offensive flow is even more important for your PG when u play look inside. The PG needs to be very good at passing and Handling would also help.
One is better at handling, the other one at passing. So on offense I would slightly prefer the better driving player.
However he is a VERY bad deffender. If he plays and the other PG is any good, he is going to destroy your team. The first one is actually a pretty good defender, so take him.
I would always pick the better defender, especially playing look inside. When u use Look inside your Team isn't going to use your PG as a scorer anyways, so to me its an easy decision, taking the better defender.

BTW take a look at the ratings of those players in previous games. I would guess the ratings of the first were much better?!

First of all- thx u guys for ur replies!
I've chosen the 2nd one and he made his best game ever! :)

19 points (no FT) in 12 minutes!!! FG: 9-17

But this leads to my next question- why does he get substituted after 12 mins!?!
He made his greatest game EVER and ok...if he was tired than he should rest a while on the bench and after maybe 6 mins or even 1 quarter he should play again... I REALY REALY REALY dont understand why he didnt play a minute in this game again :(

Any suggestions?

My best guess would that he was in foul trouble all game(he ended up with 5 fouls). His backup must have done a decent job in filling as well.

I'd agree. After all, he did have terrible defensive skills, which would lead to his foul trouble. To the OP: was his backup the guy you didn't choose? What were his numbers like?

Ahh :) I didnt see that he was in foultrouble! Of course that must be the reason :)

No his backup was my #1 PG
Codorna, Bruno 31 4 - 13 0 - 1 1 - 2 .... 9 pts 5.0

he is only inept in JS an JR but has respactable OD, passing and handling ...

I was pretty sure to win this game so I tried how import driving is for Look Inside but I didn't consider that he would get in foultrouble because of his bad defense skills.
